I took Molly to her class Weds & she was doing pretty good but when we broke up to practice dumbbell work I was having trouble getting her to focus on me........she was too busy being nosy & watching what all the other dogs were doing. After that we were going to practice the jumps & I just concentrated on getting Molly to jump over the high jump & then turn around & jump back over to me. My instructor came over & said why don't you throw the dumbbell & I was like "Are you kidding I can't even get her to pick it up!" Tammy looked at me & said "What to you have to lose?"
(To understand what we are teaching them watch here)
I figured she's right lets go for it! I set Molly up, threw the dumbbell over the jump & she jumped over, picked it up, turned & jumped back over & ran & sat in front of me holding it like she had been doing it all her life!
I swear to god this dog learns by watching what the other dogs do!

Well done Mollydog. Does she have any teeth left? I'm sure that thing must weigh a tonne, Ok at least 5lbs
